It might be better if you didn’t invite former FBI chief James Comey to the beach this summer. Comey’s “shell game” of messaging negative things about President Trump has gotten him indicted on two counts of threatening a Chief Executive. Using shells. On a beach. Not joshing you.
The first charges against Comey were thrown out by a federal judge in Virginia, where Comey lives. Now the case has been moved to North Carolina, the site of the beach. If they keep going with this, Comey and the jury will be wearing snorkel gear.
Comey is a poltroon and probably deserves all the grief. He fed bad stuff about President Trump to The New York Times using a friend who works at Columbia University as the messenger. Then he told a Congressional Committee that he didn’t do that. But the friend says he did do that. I believe the friend.
Anyway, Mr. Trump does not like Comey. The President probably knows the case is weak, but will bring some grief to the ex-Bureau guy. Defending yourself in federal court costs substantial cash.
There is no truth that a new movie, “Beach Party Comey,” is in production. That wouldn’t be right. Comey is likely to walk.
Shells or no shells.
